About Elena

I am a Senior Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist with over 10 years of experience helping people recover from injury, manage pain, and return to the activities that matter most to them. Throughout my career, I have worked with a wide range of conditions, including sports injuries, post-surgical rehabilitation, back and joint pain, and persistent musculoskeletal problems.
 Understanding my patients on a deeper level and looking after their wellbeing will always be the core of a successful recovery from injury.  My approach is personalised and evidence-based, combining hands-on therapy, rehabilitation, exercise prescription, Clinical Pilates, dry needling, and acupuncture to help patients achieve lasting results and regain confidence in their movement.
I have a particular interest in vestibular rehabilitation for dizziness and vertigo, as well as post-surgery recovery, sports injuries, and pregnancy and postnatal physiotherapy. My goal is to provide clear guidance, effective treatment, and ongoing support to help every patient recover as efficiently as possible and get back to doing what they love.

What happens at a first appointment with you?

Firstly, I do a thorough assessment to understand what has caused the condition and whether any of the treatments I offer will benefit the client. I discuss goals and expectations to tailor the treatment plan and ensure a successful recovery path. I offer a hands-on treatment within the available time to ease the discomfort

What is your approach to treatment?
I refine my treatment approach over time. My current approach is to understand the lifestyle of my client and tailor the treatment plan to the individual, while maintaining the consistency needed to achieve meaningful results.

Movement has the power to change not only how we feel in our bodies, but also how we experience everyday life.
